Spy camera detector (Patreon)

Inside a Temu spy camera detector - with schematic

Although this detector came from Temu (not a sponsor) it is widely available from many online sales platforms. Its purpose is to help you locate concealed cameras in your home or temporary accommodation. It does that by firing out a bright ring of red light, which you can then view centrally for retro-reflections from lenses. The use of a dichroic glass filter is unusual for something like this, and quite a nice touch. The circuitry is very simple, since the unit relies on the skills of the user to differentiate what might be causing a reflected pinpoint of light. It's intended for use by someone knowledgeable about what they are looking for and the areas a secret camera might be covering. If you enjoy these videos you can help support the channel with a dollar for coffee, cookies and random gadgets for disassembly at:- https://www.bigclive.com/coffee.htm This also keeps the channel independent of YouTube's algorithm quirks, allowing it to be a bit more dangerous and naughty. #ElectronicsCreators
